NECKTIE-PIN.

sPEcIFIdATiofi forming part of Letters Patent No. 430,940, dated June24, 1890.

Application filed September 20, 1889. $erial No. 324,512. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, JOHN MURRAY GUIL- BERT, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing in the city and county of Philadelphia, State ofPennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Neck -\VearPins, which improvement is fully set forth in the followingspecification and accompanying drawings.

My invention consists of a neck-wear pin having near the point thereof across-bar which forms an abutment for the fabric of the article ofneck-wear and means for seating said cross bar or piece, whereby it isprevented from shifting.

Figure 1 represents a face view of a neckwear pin embodying myinvention. Fig. 2 represents a perspective view thereof on an enlargedscale. Figs. 3, 4:, 5, and 6 represent perspective views ofmodifications.

Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in theseveral figures.

Referring to the drawings, A designates a neck-wear pin formed of a wireframe of rectangular form, or approximately so, consisting of thepointed pin proper 1, the side piece 2, the bend 3, which joins saidparts 1 and 2, the cr0ss-piece 4, which extends laterally from the endof the side piece 2 opposite to the bend 3 and projecting across the pin1 and, the deflection or depression 5 near the point of the pin, saidcross-piece being seated in said depression, whereby it is preventedfrom shifting. It will be seen that the pin portion about which the pinportion 1 has pierced may be compressed against the cross-bar 4 as astop, thus holding said part and preventing the same from losing itsshape, the pin also reliably retaining its position, Owing to thedepression 5, the cross-bar 4:, which engages with the walls thereof,interlocks with the portion 1 of the pin, and is thus prevented fromshifting.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Let ters Patent, is

A neck-wear pin composed of a frame of substantially rectangular form,having the pin 1 proper with side piece 2 and cross-piece 4 with onefree end, said pin 1 being provided with the depression 5 near the pointthereof for seating the cross-piece 4: therein and extended beyond theframe, substantially as described.

JOHN MURRAY GUILBERT.
